Minimal biar ga kayak ramalan jayabaya, sing bodho tambah mlongo..
Kenapa diwilayah lain, lokasi wisata tidak dikelola seperti di nusa dua, BTDC. Atau apakah tidak bisa BTDC mengelola daerah wisata lainnya di bali, kan lebih pengalaman timbang yg lain ? Atau bila masalah dana apakah BTDC tidak bisa membantu pemerintah daerah tentang konsep dan standard pengelolaan daerah wisata. Saya harap semoga jawabannya bukan it's all about the money. Karena diluar korporasi tersebut, yang menjalankan kan tetap orang2 yang tinggal di bali yang mempunyai tanggung jawab secara tdk lsg terhadap kelestarian bali, apalagi beliau2 yg memiliki ilmu dan pengalaman
Sigh..kalau pak rai join milis ini kan lebih enak toh ya pak ode, saya bisa dapet jawaban langsung dari beliau biarpun mungkin pertanyaannya bikin beliau mesem, saking lemotnya yang nanya.
Salam,
Lia

Perihal: [bali-bali] Special team to review plan to develop lake
Special team to review plan to develop lake
Tue, 01/20/2009 4:34 PM | Bali
Bali Governor I Made Mangku Pastika announced Sunday his
administration would establish a special team to review investor
plans to transform one of the island's lakes into a mass tourism
venue.
The plan has drawn strong criticism from local environmental
activists, who say the project would further degrade the integrity of
the surrounding area, estimated to be one of the island's few
remaining water absorption areas. "A team will be assigned to
review the plan. We, of course, will not issue any recommendation
without first reviewing and deliberating on it thoroughly,"
Pastika said during an inspection trip to Karangasem on Sunday.
Pastika stressed he expects the investor to initiate
rehabilitation programs to mitigate the environmental damage
affecting areas around the lake. "In inviting investors, we
don't have any intention to damage the environment, on the contrary,
the lake's current condition has moved us to look for suitable
investors *to help improve it*," he added.
Pastika pointed out Buyan is currently suffering from a severe
sedimentation problem. Sedimentation has mucked up 60 hectares of the
lake's total area of 336.
The lake's water quality has also degraded significantly due to
pollution, the use of chemical fertilizers in lakeside farms and the
practice of channeling waste and garbage into the lake. there is the
problem of poverty, widespread among communities living around the
lake. Poverty will force people to do anything, including damage the
environment, to sustain themselves," he said.
The construction of a tourism project at the lake, Pastika said,
would provide job opportunities for the local community, diminishing
poverty.
Rehabilitating the lake's surrounding environment would require
extensive effort, including dredging, reforestation and construction
of a network of filters to prevent polluting waste from entering the
lake. a program calls for huge funding,why we need investors,"
he said.
Agung Wardana, the Bali chapter's head of Friends of the Earth
Indonesia (WALHI), lambasted Pastika's logic as "a misguided way
of thinking".
"Conserving the lake *by inviting investors* is simply a
clich*, a pretext. The administration should instead put a halt to
every man-made construction project near the lake if it is really
serious about saving the environment," he said.
The mass tourism project, he said, would turn the lake from public
space into a private one, thus robbing the local communities of their
right to manage and gain benefit from the lake.
On Friday, representatives of PT Anantara presented the governor
and the regent of Buleleng with a proposal to build upscale tourism
facilities on a 60-hectare plot in and around the lake. The
construction phase would employ around 1,000 workers.
Located in the Sukasada district of Buleleng, Lake Buyan is one of
a trio of lakes within an extensive caldera. A vast virgin forest
separates Lake Buyan from Lake Tamblingan to the west; Lake Beratan
lies to the east.
So far only the area around Lake Beratan has been developed as a
tourist destination. Its close proximity with Eka Karya, the island's
largest botanical garden, has made Beratan a favorite weekend getaway
for residents of Bali's southern cities. Beratan also hosts Ulun
Danu, a major water temple on the island.
